AA.Mongolia.Springer.GF–Arnold Springer, the man responsible for bringing the two teams of doctors to Mongolia, finds solitude at Gandan Hild monastery one early morning in Ulaanbaatar. Springer is a longtime political activist, professor of Russian history at Cal State Long Beach and director of private Ulan Bator Foundation. He set up the foundation to bring Mongolia’s “concepts of space, light,air (and) horizons” to West Los Angeles and conversely to bring a better understanding of the West to Mongolia.
